The texts inside are based on, what my professor tells me were Beckett's preferred versions. It doesn't have every single text (for example, for one of the required short stories for class, I had to use the "Complete Short Prose" instead of this - but it has a LOT. The one thing is that the endpieces (or whatever you call the part of the book that shows when it's on shelf) come together to create an image of Beckett that's a bit scary, which I'd hate to see out of the corner of my eye in the dark; so I have them facing in - the endpieces don't say what's in each book, anyway. But good quality paper, printing, the books aren't falling apart despite pretty heavy use. Review: Beautiful collection of an amazing author - What a spectacular package! You wouldn't be reading this if you didn't have an inkling of what's in store for you with this purchase, possibly due to knowing something about Beckett himself, perhaps you've seen or read 'Godot' or one of his novels, or poetry - who knows? Either way, I'm telling you, this is the ultimate collection of Beckett's English-language material. I was a little frustrated when it came to the product description - I'd never seen a rundown of what I'd find in the box when I opened it. I know this is a Beckett collection, but not his complete works. A list of what's inside the covers of these four volumes is in order.

Typically the book(s) arrive bent, creased, or otherwise un-keepable. It probably helped this set of 4 PAPERBACK books (listed as HC, but I knew beforehand they were not HC) came in a stylish box/sleeve for safekeeping. So along with Amazon's air bag packaging, the books came unscathed. A superb collection of Beckett's work, similar in ways to the Grove Centenary 4 Volume Edition in HC - The Grove Centenary Editions of Samuel Beckett Boxed Set: Contains Novels I and II of Samuel Beckett, The Dramatic Works of Samuel Beckett, and The Poems, Short Fiction and Critcism of Samuel Beckett , but without the prefaces by various authors, or the hefty price tag (Amazon doesn't have any on hand, though some sellers have them on offer for +/- $270; eBay has individual volumes for $20-$30, except for Volume 4, which is often upwards of $100 on its own, if it's even on offer). I am excited to have all this Beckett at my beck and call. His works require lots of pondering and reference-checking.
